Encouragement For April 13:
The Diver
This is such
a simple, yet powerful story. Every seed you sow in witnessing the
saving grace of Jesus does do its job. We read this in Isaiah 55:11,
"So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall
not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please,
and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it."
I
hope you enjoy the story.
THE DIVER
A young man who had
been raised as an atheist was training to be an Olympic diver. The
only religious influence in his life came from his outspoken
Christian friend.
The young diver never really paid much
attention to his friends sermons, but he heard them often. One night
the diver went to the indoor pool at the college he attended.
The lights were all off, but as the pool had big skylights and
the moon was bright, there was plenty of light to practice by.
The
young man climbed up to the highest diving board and as he turned
his back to the pool on the edge of the board and extended his
arms out, he saw his shadow on the wall. The shadow of his body
was in the shape of a cross. Instead of diving, he knelt down
and asked God to come into his life. As the young man stood, a
maintenance man walked in and turned the lights on.
The
pool had been drained for repairs.

Many
people who don't know the Lord feel they have time to get "saved",
time to serve the Lord later, but want to have fun now. We never
know when our time on earth will end, so please make Jesus your
Lord today if you have not done so already.
Today is the
day of Salvation, as we read in II Corinthians 6:2, "Behold, now
is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation."
Be encouraged friend in that spreading the gospel of Christ is
the power unto
Salvation. It is not in our power that people
make Jesus their Lord but by God's spirit. Zechariah 4:6 "Not
by might nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the LORD
Almighty."
Everlasting in Christ,
Dwayne
